Cupe Local 2605

Congratulations to: Angela R (vice president), Kirsten D (treasurer) and Tammy G (secretary) on your success in today’s by-election!

Poilievre says he won’t raise the retirement age, but his party has already lied about raising the retirement age once before. They committed in their 2011 platform that they wouldn't cut pensions, then they went ahead and did it anyway. And they did it from Davos, Switzerland of all places.

What’s to stop him and the Conservative Party from doing it again?

There are all kinds of ways to cut CPP and OAS without changing the retirement age, and Poilievre's record clearly shows that he's in favour of reducing these programs, one way or another.


Add your voice to demand Canada’s response be more than the kneejerk calls for tax cuts, deregulation and privatization from corporate boardrooms and the right-wing: https://cupe.ca/stand-guard-add-your-name-montreal-declaration
